Swap Bag

Category : Swaps


Stick a fork in me, I’m done with my latest swap! I finished up the large item in The Office Swap – a cute little messenger style bag. While the bag doesn’t look like something that you would see in a themed swap, when my partner opens up the inside…. she’ll see a “Property of Dunder Mifflin” tag on the flap. I think that it keeps the bag functional (so she can use it for everyday use), but at the same time it’s fun and keeps the theme of the swap.
As for the bag pattern, I used Sew What! Bags‘s DJ bag. I have to admit that I didn’t follow the directions – I glanced over them, but didn’t notice anything unique to construction so I just put it together as I have other bags with a similar style. The one thing this bag is missing is interfacing. The directions didn’t call for it and seeing that I didn’t have enough on hand, I didn’t bother. Consequently, it’s a lot floppier than what I would have liked. I probably won’t be making this particular bag again (I think I have other patterns that I like better), but I will definitely be using this fabric combination again – I just love this material with the faux suede!
By the way, Happy Valentines day!

Looks great Stacy! I like the colour combo you have used too.

Congrats on finishing! The inside tag has a lot of quirky charm. It’ll be a pleasure for her to open her bag every time.
